Moving Out
The deadline for those participating in graduation to move out of the residence hall at the end of the academic year is 1 p.m. on the day after Commencement. Additional charges will be applied for students unable to complete the move-out process by this date unless required to remain on campus for a university function such as athletics or if the student has requested to reside on campus for the summer and met the financial obligation.
